Running to the electronics store for some computer parts for a build, about to get on freeway:

Friend 1: Oh **** Friend 2 has never been in the Evo before, Anonymouse!
Me: ORLY?
Friend 2: Nice car, Anonymouse.
Me: *redline 1st through 3rd*
Evo: *pssssssshhhh vrooooooooooom* *pollution* *pop pop pop*
Friend 1: *laughing*
Friend 2: *laughing* HOLY ****!

 

My son and I went to a local Mitsubishi dealership to look at a used GSR and a new MR just for giggles. Met a salesman who obviously is unenlightend when it comes to Evos. Salesman: "Man, these cars will take you straight to jail. They are so fast, you can't even control all that power". My son, who has a 2011 Evo GSR says, "Meh, I have a slightly modified Evo and it feels slow to me". My son points to my 2011 stock Evo X GSR and says, "If you think that is fast, then you don't know performance cars.". Salesman slowly skulks away back inside the dealership....

 

I haven't had mine long but here are mine.

"Can I drive it?"
"Why did you have the ACD taken out of it.? (Mines an 04 and sadly that came for another evo owner)
"Your car sounds like its sneezing does it have a cold?" (Although that one did come from my girlfriends 6 year old daughter so it was kinda cute.)

 

"Im gonna get a muscle car with 1 more horsepower than you and smoke you"

(little boy) "Look! its a race car!" I felt so good the rest of my drive!

"I was thinkin of putting a spoiler like that on my civic" (he was serious)

"are you gonna lower it?"

 

A few from people at work when I first got her:

"Is it as fast as it looks?" - Yes.
"That car is sexy." - Yes.
"It looks like an angry chinaman." - Ignorant.

 

once i got a "hey man that thing got vtec yo?" i told him no its got a mivec tho.. then he said "mivec? whats that a faster vtec?" i just just walked away...

 

coworker: why do you have so many gauges
me: because race car

 

"Nice Eclipse!"

"Nice Mazda!"

"Nice car, my buddy has the *exact* same one.. it's gonna fly when he get's his supercharger put on!"

 

I just had this happen the other day......a girl and her bf walked past me and my gf in my car and stopped then winked and then said you have a hot car. I laughed. Thank god my gf had her head down.

 

Omg you can supercharge the Evo???!?
Oh yeah, I think autozone makes one, it bolts right up to the headlights. At least 600 more hp

 

That's all that needs to be said lol

 

what exactly was your gf doing????

 

Ill answer that for him..... road head

 

Lolol I bet you his girl was either laughing or pissed off.

 

Putting e85 in the car a few weeks ago and guy in a late 90s convert mustang pulls up and revs his motor and says to me yep 300 hp of pure american muscle. I turned to him and said thats it? and continued to put gas in the car. He askes how much power does my little rice eater have and I replied double what your pos makes continue to fill my gas. Passenger says to me after I was done were gonna smoke you *** I said I hope so I had taco bell for lunch so we leave the gas station and as usual typical annoying mustang owner just wong leave the *** end of my car. To make a long story short second gear 2k to red line didn't see him for prob 2 or 3 miles up the road at a stop light as I was turning left and neither one wanted to look at me so I yelled to them 300 hp eh what a joke as I made my left hand turn.
